remmington 700 prices

I have been seeing a big fluctuation in prices on these guns. Is there anything I should look for in these guns that would justify a higher price, or are they trying to rip me off?

This is a high quality, mass produced firearm. While some of them do come from the custom shop with special wood and so on I would spend time searching as very good ones are always available in the newspapers, Shotgun News, garage sales, pawn shops, etc. at quite reasonable prices.

Make sure you compare apples to apples.
What I mean by this....Make sure when you look at a rifle at Wal-mart,pawn shop,sporting goods store,that all are 700's of the same.
In other words,700ADL to 700ADL.700BDL to 700BDL.700 sendero to 700 sendero.etc.

Meatloaf, I just Bought a Model 700 CDL, brand new for about $800. It will do about 2 inch groups with factory ammo, and about an 1 with some of my handloads, overall a great firearm, but the trigger gaurd assembly is plastic, to me it is a turn off, I am a traditionalist who likes wood and Iron. I love the gun but remington could do a little better. Accurate though.
